Another definition of occasionally is from time to time. This phrase implies that an action or event happens infrequently and without a regular pattern.
Unlike occasionalism and Nicolas Malebranche's philosophy, where the term is rooted in the connection between the mind, body, and a deity's intervention, the word occasionally in everyday use simply refers to something that occurs now and then, without any metaphysical implications.
